Different configurations of the Pixel Detector have been studied to determine which one would be the best wrt pt and impact parameter resolution for tracks. For the tracks we are interested in the pt range compatible with the one of tracks coming from a b-hadron decay (pt~ 3.5 GeV).
We bin our measurement in 4 pt regions: 1 Gev, 2 GeV, 5GeV, 20 GeV.
And we consider 3 eta regions: C ( eta< 0.8), I (eta< 1.6), F (eta<2.4).
We use different scenarios:
TP with better resolution (7um x 15 um) sensors in first layer (sensor thickness = 0.225 in the first Layer). [ If the pixel size is decreased 75 um x 100 um, to have the same charge sharing between pixel that we have in the Run I, the thickness should be reduced]
TP with better resolution (7um x 15 um) sensors in first layer, increasing material of the first layer [ the better resolution pixel has an area that is half compared to the Run I pixel. So in the same detector there will be a double number of pixels and an increase of the material, especially for the read-out].
Strawman5, with better resolution (7um x 15 um) sensors in 2 innermost ( and extension ) layers, Phase I resolution (13 um x 28 um) sensors in 2 outer layers, (pixel thickness =0.225 in 2 layers).
